Payment Options

Compression Springs are fantastic little tools for when you need to maintain a strong pushing force between two objects or components within a system. This is ideal for applications like 3D Printer Extruders, which need to hold the filament in place while not gripping too tight – so that the filament can be pulled smoothly by the gripping cog without getting stuck. Additionally, these 8mm Compression Springs with 4.8mm OD and 3.3mm ID can be used for the 3D Printer Printbeds, to keep them levelled without applying too much force.
